While there are no shortage of advisors and schools of thought on how to acheive it in the practical sense, it all boils down to two things, knowedge, and acting upon knowedge. As the focus of the global economy shifts from an Atlantic to a Pacific paradigm, companies and individuals everywhere are faced with a multitude of issues, linguistic, cultural, and technical, complicating their&nbsp;</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;" class="Apple-style-span"></span><span style="font-size: medium;">business relationships. The knowedge aspect of business becomes complicated not only by the technical difficulty of expressing information accross language divides, but also by the differences in "meta-knowedge", the conceptual frameworks whereby empirical and abstract data are translated to the knowledge that forms the basis of Human Action, or more technically, "Praxis". The optimization of the corporate praxis though improved cross-linguistic and cross-cultural communication has become crucial.&nbsp;</span></div> <div style="border-width: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 3px; background-color: transparent; cursor: text; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; width: 511px;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Translation is but one necessary aspect, but by no means the most important aspect, of assuring smooth international and intercultural communication both within and between international organizations.

This talent of Tim's saves hours of guess work and time spent on clarification of foreign communications. Tim is the person who enlightened me to the power of idiomatic expressions and the dangers of translating such expressions literally. He taught me that in any language, the same expression can have several radically different meanings. Tim makes an effort to understand both the culture and industry origins of speaker and/or text he is translating. His knowledge of foreign languages goes beyond what he lists publicly. For example, I have witnessed him use Latin and German, and realized he had a command of those languages too. Tim's open mind and dedication to the true idea and feelings being conveyed by the speaker or text he translates makes him a valuable resource."</small></span><br> <span style="font-family: Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;"></span></div> <span style="font-family: Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;"> </span> <div style="margin-left: 40px; width: 634px;"><span style="font-family: Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;">David Zishuk- Sr. Sales Engineer at Mitsubishi Electric Automation, Inc</span></div> </div> <div> <div style="text-align: left;"> </div> <div style="width: 511px; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;"></span><br> <span style="font-family: Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;"></span></div> <div style="text-align: center; width: 511px;"> <div style="text-align: center; width: 511px;"><span style="font-family: Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;" class="Apple-style-span"><span style="font-family: Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;"><br> </span><span style="font-family: Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;"></span></span></div> </div> </div> <span style="font-family: Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"></span><br style="font-family: Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;"> <br> <h4 style="margin-left: 98px; height: 7px; width: 513px;"><span style="font-family: Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;"><br> </span></h4> </td> <td style="height: 993px;"></td> <td style="height: 993px;"></td> <td style="height: 993px;"></td> <td style="height: 993px;"></td> </tr> </tbody> </table> <span style="font-family: Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif; margin-left: 98px;"></span><span style="font-family: Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif; margin-left: 98px;"></span><br style="font-family: Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;"> &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <br style="font-family: Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;"> <span style="font-family: Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;"></span><br style="font-family: Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;"> <span style="font-family: Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;"></span>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <br style="font-family: Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;"> <span style="font-family: Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;"></span><br style="font-family: Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;"> <br style="font-family: Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;"> <span style="font-family: Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;"></span><br style="font-family: Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;"> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; orphans: 2; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; font-family: Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span"><br> <div style="border-width: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 3px; background-color: transparent; cursor: text; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-style: normal; font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-size: medium;">&nbsp;</span></div> </span></span><br> </body> </html>
